need help making manga

[pyropike]

ya maybe i really wanted to base it in japan and i have to study on that and a buunch of other stuff hmm maybe a hot spring

[orahiko]

Hm. japanese culture among the angelic and demonic? maybe. I don't see why not, especially with the same ideas. Only with different students, but the way you GET them to the places you want to go remains the same. And explaining the demons and stuff becomes easier. focusing around a young....

[pyropike]

ya or i could mix like angels an wizards demons,alchemist,elementals and a bunchof other kinds of people

[orahiko]

mm, diversity. How about different dorms, not only for male and female, but for types of people? only a couple, tho...just the ones who are predisposed to hate each other, written in transcripts, etc. with more grouping, however random, it saves having to invent types for everybody. That can get messy.

[pyropike]

ya i thought of that they i said to my self wat about mixed people could be random place

[orahiko]

Hey,
ack. Now I suddenly keep thinking of this....throughout the day...you've brainwashed me! *how odd...*kya. Well, I'd like to hear any new ideas. i was thinking that maybe a school of magic and demons was a little too...mainstream, but I dunno. Still, that opinion depends on what you've got so far.

[pyropike]

im still thinking of some stuff

[orahiko]

Like....?

[pyropike]

nothin much just who should be in and what the characters would look like since i cant draw im gonna have to make it very detailed

[orahiko]

Interesting.
Plotline is changable, and you may be able to insert characters in a way you didn't originally mean to. I wonder, is this goibg to have a complex plot, with a lot of themes, or vice versa? Themes are nice, tho, and add a lot of character to a bare storyline, or to characters that may seem fantastic, but are like others....(there are so many people out there, that any original idea is barely original. Bleh! )
I'd help draw, but I'm not really a manga artist. Comics are fine for me.....*sad. Oh well, nothing really is concrete, and you can still change it, even though if you're anything like me the idea will be horrifying to you.

[pyropike]

i havent really decided what happenes theres gonna be random plots for every chapter and stuff you wouldnt think would happen hell i might stick in that someone went to hell and it was heacen and hell was heaven.

[orahiko]

Hey!
I wonder...do you mean to have a main character, or an underlying plot, or will it be the prevailing theme of heaven and hell and everything inbetween to tie it together? And different people, or the same? short, seperately plotted stories sounds like a great idea, and if you ever want to discuss the heaven and hell switch, and stuff etc, i'd like to hear it. If you want to. (kinda have a bit of experiance in mythology of hell throught the ages, bible, etc, even tho I'm not religious.)

[pyropike]

ya i have one but im not sure he will be there for every book or he'll be main character of every book...and i used to do some studying when i was younger but im a little rusty so im gonna have to study again.

[orahiko]

Studying evil. Unless you love it, which isn't studying.

Tomorrow never comes.

[pyropike]

i looked up a bunch of stuff about mystical stuff when i was younger it was the only thing interesting to read at the time other than manga,anime,and going outside.

[orahiko]

That seems to be the general consensus.
